Few know the gap between public image and private reality like Jordan Stephens. As one half of the hip-hop duo Rizzle Kicks and a bestselling author, he found fame young and has spoken openly about the pressures of performing a version of himself to the world. But his experience raises a question that now faces us all in the age of the curated online profile: if we are always performing a self, is there a "true" self underneath? Joined by Sarah Wilson, multi-New York Times bestselling author and social philosopher, Stephens asks whether a true self exists beneath the performance, or whether we are only ever the roles we play.
